Melee Weapons

Weapons with a racial tag in parentheses are exclusive to the listed race and are not for sale. Also, while some "martial-art" type weapons such as a Katana and Naginata are listed along with a small number of others, these types of weapons are not commonly found in Mizahar because that particular "real-world" culture that these weapons sprouted from, does not exist. The occurrence of some of these types of weapons evolved from specific smiths who crafted their own style throughout history; styles of which never really caught on in mainstream weaponsmithing. IMPORTANT NOTE: See Isurian Steel in the Lore for more detailed information on that material.

Bagh Nakh A claw-like weapon made to fit under or against the palm or over the knuckles. Four or five curved blades are affixed to a crossbar or glove with the weapon being used to slash through skin and muscle. Often found in use by assassins or by thieves looking for an easily concealable form of protection in their line of work.	3 gm	Bladed Boots The blades in these boots are typically extended via a spring located in the heel and activated by pressing firmly down upon it.	20 gm	Dagger A common weapon often used as a secondary item of offense or defense.	2 gm
Dagger, Assassin’s This broad-bladed dagger is designed to inflict vicious, gaping wounds that are difficult to mend.	4 gm	Dagger, Double-Bladed Consisting of two blades mounted together upon a central hilt.	8 gm	Dagger, Ear A thin, double-edged dagger with a pommel that resembles a human ear.	5 gm
Dagger, Hollow Pommel The handle of this dagger is actually a secret carrying case. On most of these daggers, the pommel’s bottom portion screws off to reveal the handle’s hollow centre, though on some the blade actually twists off.	20 gm	Dagger, Punching This dagger puts the full force of the wielder’s punch behind it.	2 gm	Daggers, Tamo Tamo daggers, which are always sold in pairs, are thin, stiletto blades mounted on an often elaborately-carved, thick, wooden handle. Each handle has a slot near the blade that serves as a sheath for its twin – when the blades are sheathed the handles form a sturdy club.	20 gm
Finger Razors Attached to a ring worn near the knuckle of any finger, this blade sits snugly between outstretched fingers where it will be hidden until needed.	5 gm	Flametongue The flametongue has a similar blade to the flamberge, being extremely wavy in design. This confers many of the advantages of the larger sword to this dagger, allowing it to cause crippling damage against an enemy.	40 gm	Garotte A handheld ligature of chain, rope, scarf, wire or fishing line used to strangle a person.	5 sm
Gauntlets Although considered a piece of armor by most, the gauntlet also makes an effective weapon. Striking someone with an armored fist can be devastating while not necessarily being lethal.	2 gm	Fias, Plain These metal fingertip blades are often razor-sharp and can be used as weapons in hand-to-hand combat. They are Benshira in origin, with the name meaning 'claws' in Shiber. One set includes five Fias sized for one hand.	10 gm	Fias, Decorative These metal fingertip blades are often razor-sharp and can be used as weapons in hand-to-hand combat. These fingertip blades are decorated to look like elaborate jewelry, though they are deadly. They are Benshira in origin, with the name meaning 'claws' in Shiber. One set includes five Fias sized for one hand. Decorative fias are designed to look like elegant jewelry and are often crusted with semi-precious gems.	50 gm
Gauntlets, Edged Blades are placed along the back of the gauntlet to allow the one to slash an opponent with a backhanded swipe. These gauntlets also bare a rather intimidating appearance.	8 gm	Gauntlets, Spiked The knuckles of these gauntlets are set with inch-long spikes which make a punch become much more deadly.	5 gm	Gauntlets, Studded Weighted studs are placed upon the gauntlet to provide a more punishing blow to foes when a strike is landed with this gauntlet.	5 gm
Gauntlet, Teethed These gauntlets are meant to catch an opponent’s blade and help in disarming him. The fingers, knuckles, wrist and forearm areas of these gauntlets have irregular shaped protrusions that can catch small blades allowing the wearer an advantage.	10 gm	Knife The knife is any blade smaller than a dagger, ranging from hunting blades to steak knives. Though not necessarily designed for direct combat, a knife can make for a good back-up weapon in a pinch.	5 sm	Knife, Wrist A tiny, single-edged knife small enough to be concealed upon one's body in a way that is difficult to detect. Such knives are often found tucked into bracers, sewn into sleeves, hidden in boots, pretty much anywhere.	1 gm
Knuckleduster A knuckleduster is a spiked, leather strap worn across the knuckles that makes the wearer’s punches much deadlier.	5 sm	Kukri This heavy, curved dagger has its sharp edge on the inside of the curve.	8 gm	Lakan (Akalak) These twisted daggers are the preferred Akalak Warriors. Forged as part of a right of passage, these weapons are sacred to the Akalak. If anyone saves an Akalak Warrior's life, they tend to gift them with one of their Lakan, which the person can keep until the debt is repaid. Reported to have powerful connections to the warriors, the Akalak always know where their Lakan are.	NA
Mace, Light A short, steel haft with a flanged head that relies on the strength of the wielder to deal damage.	5 gm	Py-pole Pycons only. A long, highly elastic staff made from tree resin, the Py-pole has a sharp metal tip and can be used to stab or defend, though its foremost intent is as an aid for performing incredible leaps that usually result in powerful flying kicks.	10 gm	Py-string Pycons only. They are sometimes seen wielding sharp spiderweb silk strings, holding one end in either hand. The fighter will generally vary the length of string between their hands during the fight, using them to parry, deflect, trip and cut opponents.	12 gm
Py-whip Pycons only. This whip is proportionally much longer than a whip for the bigger races. Made from extremely flexible leather materials, it is long enough to form dozens of coils and is usually wielded with two hands. When released, it can capture an opponent's limb and throw them around with a single movement. Its drawback is that the whip needs to be fully recoiled before it can be used again.	10 gm	Ribbon Daggers Ribbon daggers consist of a small, flat blade and a series of ribbons or strings for the handle. The user spins the weapon much like a sling. The benefit of these weapons is in concealment. Because the blade is so small, it can be placed on or in clothing, leaving only brightly colored ribbons showing. This weapon is used mostly by entertainers who want a little extra protection.	1 gm	Sickle This weapon is like a farmer’s sickle, but it is strengthened for use as a weapon.	6 gm
Spiked Helmet This is a strong and well-armored helmet with a long, sharp spike mounted upon its top. Fashions and styles vary, but spikes have been seen measuring over a foot in length.	25 gm	Stiletto A dagger with a needle-like point meant more for piercing and puncturing than for cutting. It lacks a cutting edge is used primarily against heavily armored opponents.	1 gm	Suvai (Konti) These are three-pronged weapons carved from the shed spiral horns of a white ocean whale. Complete with spiral handles they are used almost exclusively by the Konti women. When they draw blood, the Suvai tend to weaken the person they cut or pierce, so its highly likely the horn the Suvai are carved from is inherently poisonous to those not Konti.	NA
Sword-Catcher Smaller than the sword-breaker, this dagger-sized weapon is based around the same principle, forged with two prongs that allow it to trap and break swords.	9 gm

Angle-Knife A curved, double-edged dagger, some examples are so extreme in their curvature that the point extends at right angles away from the hilt. The angle-knife can be a vicious weapon in the right hands, dealing serious wounds to even a well-armored enemy.	10 gm	Armor Blades (Isurian) These blades sprout from the elbows, knees, forearms, shoulders or any other surface that could be used for striking out at an enemy. Sliding on hinged rails, these blades are normally retracted flat against the armor but those who are proficient in their use can snap the blades out for quick use. Requires a separate suit of armor.	100 gm	Club A wooden club is so easy to find and fashion that it has no cost.	NA
Dagger, Sap Pommel Incorporates a heavy, one-inch diameter bludgeon at the end of the dagger’s pommel.	1 gm	Gladius Looking much like an ornate short sword, the gladius is actually a very different weapon. With a blade expertly-honed to the keenest point, the gladius is exceptionally well-balanced and utterly lethal in skilled hands.	45 gm	Halfspear Half the length of an average spear.	1 gm
Hammer, Light This is a small sledge, light enough to throw.	1 gm	Handaxe A small axe designed to be used as a secondary weapon, usually with a battleaxe.	6 gm	Iron Fan An iron fan is a well-crafted fan with iron spines covered with either paper or silk and decorated with elaborate landscapes or animal motifs.	25 gm

Often used in pairs.	2 gm
Kris A long-bladed dagger often taking on a wavy shape though it may be straight as well. In some of the more uncivilized tribes of the wilds, the weapon is seen as a good-luck charm.	5 gm	Lance, Barbed, Light This lance has a barbed metal tip designed to tear at wounds and cause greater harm.	10 gm	Lance, Blunt, Light The point of this lance is blunt and rounded.	7 gm
Lance, Light Easier to balance and hold, their reach is limited and puts wielders at a disadvantage when used against longer lances.	6 gm	Mace, Chained A chained mace functions exactly like a heavy mace until its head is removed. When twisted, the mace head detaches from the haft and a length of chain slides from the hollow handle. This effectively converts the weapon into a light flail.	75 gm	Mace, Heavy A short, steel haft with a flanged head that relies on the strength of the wielder to deal damage.	12 gm
Morningstar A short wooden haft topped by a spiked steel ball, the morningstar improves over the simple impact of a club.	8 gm	Nunchaku Two wood handles connected by a short length of rope or chain.	2 gm	Pick, Light A pick is designed to concentrate its force on a small, penetrating point.	4 gm
Rooster Blade Resembling a thin, flattened, all-metal club with elaborate protrusions and a spear-like thrusting head. It is used to stab and is often used in pairs.	16 gm	Sap A stick of less than arms-length, usually made of wood or metal.	1 gm	Sawtooth One of the most primitive weapons to be carried into battle, the sawtooth is nothing more than a wooden sword with sharpened teeth or horns mounted along one edge.	10 gm

Useful for disarming and tripping opponents.	25 gm	Sword, Cutlass A short, broad slashing sword, with a straight or slightly curved blade sharpened on the cutting edge, and a hilt often featuring a solid cupped or basket-shaped guard.	12 gm	Sword, Short As the name implies, this is a sword that is a bit longer than a normal dagger. It is often used as an off-hand weapon alongside larger ones.	10 gm
Sword-Breaker A cunning weapon designed to catch, twist and break an opponent’s blade, this is often used as an off-hand weapon by duelists and fencers to break swords and daggers. Special notches in the blade allow opposing blades to be trapped and then by twisting the blade, opposing blades may break due to the leverage created.	16 gm	Sykan Survival Knife This massive knife can be upwards of a foot long with one edge toothed so that the weilder can use it as hand saw and with the other side sharply edged like a bowie knife. This knife has a large strong handle that has an end-cap that can be removed to reveal a water-tight compartment where things such as matches, a small first aid kit, firestarter material or paracord can be stored.	23 gm	Wakizashi Similar in design to a katana but smaller and less valued. Most often found dueled with a katana.	100 gm
Wrist Razor A wicked-looking weapon comprised of a sturdy metal band secured to the wrist and forearm with two or three large blades extending out above and beyond the hand. Such blades can be anything up to a foot or more in length and allow the wielder to fight in the style of a wild cat, scratching and clawing at his enemy, gouging great slashing wounds. Usually used in pairs.	65 gm

Sword, Crescent Appearing as a greatly exaggerated scimitar, the blade can curve back almost all the way back to the wielder.
